March Community Call xitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1vKpPrLPr…

IMUA'S MARCH RECAP ✧ Built an AI agent staking demo ✧ Advanced $SOL restaking with expanded testing and bug fixes ✧ Continued @HyperliquidX research, progressing toward implementation ✧ Completed deeper validation of the reward compounding system ✧ Hardened validator slashing and operator safety across multiple edge cases ✧ @stake_shark is live on Imua Testnet as a validator ✧ Streamed a live testnet demo of the @MonalloAI Store Details below: 🛠️ Technical Updates In March, Imua's contributors focused on protocol hardening, cross-chain infrastructure, and production readiness across the validator, restaking, and data layers. a. AI Agent Staking Demo: Contributors built an AI agentic staking framework, creating staking workflows, and user scenarios for AI agents. This lays the groundwork for more interactive, application-oriented staking experiences. b. Validator Slashing & Operator Safety: Contributors closed multiple edge cases around slashing, consensus-key rotation, and downtime tracking. Frozen operators can no longer re-enter restricted flows. These fixes tighten enforcement and improve validator management at the protocol level. c. Reward Compounding: Contributors continued to validate the compounding reward system, including operator reward calculations under varying price conditions. The feature is nearing production reliability. d. Staking for UTXO Chains: The staking layer for UTXO-ecosystem chains received additional hardening, with complex edge-case validation and gateway contract refactoring to improve maintainability, extensibility, and contract size. e. $SOL Restaking: Documentation, testing coverage, and targeted bug fixes pushed the Solana restaking module forward. Contributors improved implementation clarity and reduced development ambiguity across key workflows. f. Frontend & Testing: Broader unit and integration test coverage, rendering fixes, and UX improvements streamlined the codebase for faster future iteration. g. Infrastructure & DevOps: Node monitoring tools, upgrade processes, and configuration workflows were all optimized to prepare for the bootstrap phase and mainnet. h. Hyperliquid & Ecosystem Research: Research into support for Hyperliquid turned into initial implementation, with research into further expansion opportunities for Imua. March pushed Imua's core systems through tighter validation, deeper cross-chain coverage, and the kind of production hardening that mainnet demands. 🤝 New Partnership: StakeShark @stake_shark is joining the Imua ecosystem as a validator partner. StakeShark operates across 15+ proof-of-stake networks with 99.99% uptime and enterprise-grade security infrastructure. Their experience running high-availability validator nodes adds depth to Imua's operator set as the network prepares for mainnet.

Monallo Store lets developers buy AI API credits with crypto, covering models like GPT-5.2, MiniMax, Gemini, and Qwen. It helps developers access the models they want without worrying about bank restrictions, swap fees into local currencies, or other limitations. Monallo Store is live on the Imua testnet and will launch on mainnet when it goes live. Watch the demo here: xitter.cf/imua/status/2038799063… 🗝️ Key Content a. Staking AI Agents: An Imua contributor built a working demo of a staked AI agent on Imua. The agent ran tasks, got slashed when it violated its boundary conditions, and stopped the offending behavior. This is stake-backed accountability for AI agents in action. In the future, people may be able to stake popular agents to secure them, and earn yield from their economic activity: xitter.cf/imua/status/2038665500… b. Slashing as Accountability: Slashing is a bad name for a good idea. "Slashing" is merely a deterrent. Ideally, it never happens, but its existence keeps participants honest. Imua believes this mechanism can extend beyond crypto to make real-world systems more accountable: xitter.cf/imua/status/2034291336… c. How does AI think of Imua? We asked. And this is what it came up with: xitter.cf/imua/status/2031892660… ⏩ Move Forward with Imua March brought many critical updates to staking and restaking infrastructure, hardening of key systems ahead of the bootstrap phase, and deeper exploration of initial use cases for Imua to generate real yield from the start. Mainnet preparation continues to move forward. Join our tribe of tribes and stay up-to-date: 👾 Discord: discord.com/invite/Imua 📩 Telegram: t.me/imua_xyz
